Award-winning Laser Treatment and Aesthetic Centre, One Doc Medical (One Doc), celebrated its third anniversary with the unveiling of the revolutionary PICOCARE laser by WONTECH, South Korea’s leader in laser and aesthetic devices.

This partnership solidified One Doc as the centre with the largest number of Pico Laser devices in Malaysia.

The collaboration places a “PICOCARE 450” device in every one of One Doc’s current 12 outlets and any future outlets to come. To commemorate, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between One Doc Medical Co-founders Dr. Terrence Teoh and Dr. Michael Ong, and WONTECH Principles Ms. Genie Jung and Mr. Isaac Jang.

The world’s most advanced, innovative and US-FDA approved super-speed laser treatment for skin imperfections uses Picosecond technology that delivers ultra-short bursts of energy to the skin in picoseconds – trillionths of a second; that’s almost instantaneous! Patients can immediately experience a difference in skin quality and appearance.

“PICOCARE is known as the new gold standard of lasers with the “450 picosecond (ps) pulse duration” hallmark, making it the fastest laser that yields results in one session that traditional lasers achieve in three,” she added.

Patients only feel mild to no discomfort during treatment as the laser is gentle to the skin’s outer layer, causing no burn or damage. Slight pinpricks may be noticed, but this varies depending on pain tolerance. Minimal skin redness (pinkish) may be experienced for less than 3 days.

One Doc Executive Director, Dr. Terrence Teoh, advises patients that a minimum of 4 treatments about 3-4 weeks apart are required for best results.

“This treatment is highly recommended for those struggling with severe acne or hyperpigmentation, who are actively seeking a solution that caters to their busy lifestyle and preference for low social downtime,” he added.

One Doc offers multiple One Doc Pico Laser treatment packages to suit different skin conditions. Suitable treatments for specific skin issues will be recommended after a brief consultation.

This is the right time to experience the journey to FLAWLESS, RADIANT SKIN IS JUST PICOSECONDS AWAY.

SAY GOODBYE TO ACNE, DARK SPOTS

AND AGING SKIN.
AVAILIBILITY- ONE DOC MEDICAL
The One Doc Pico Laser treatments are available at all One Doc Medical outlets

16 Finalist have been chosen so far for the Guardian Malaysia ARE YOU ‘THE FACE OF HEALTHY BEAUTY’.

After a hard-fought semi-finals where each of the 25 shortlisted semi-finalists had to go through challenges that display their aptitude and personality to deservedly earn the title ‘The Face of Healthy Beauty’, four finalists emerged to progress to the Grand Finals to be held in Kuala Lumpur on 27 July 2019.

Lawyer and mother of two teenage boys, Alwizah Al Yafii Binti Ahmad Kamal, 45, from Kuala Lumpur, was very happy and very surprised to be picked as a finalist.

“I really thought I did not stand a chance against such an accomplished group of semi-finalists who were so beautiful, so young, so confident with so much energy, from different walks of life and who mostly held professional jobs. So this win was really unexpected for me and I still can’t believe it. I’m so happy,” she said.

Alwizah said she wasn’t a ‘pageant’ person but she was a firm believer on being healthy especially now when women say they don’t have time to keep healthy because of work commitments.

“I want to be an ambassador for health and beauty because this is my passion,” she added.

Alwizah who counts Tun Mahathir as her idol says like Tun she wants to keep on working until she is in her nineties so keeping healthy is very important. And being the oldest semi-finalist in the Central region she feels she is on her way to achieving that goal.

Alwizah who didn’t have time to prepare for the contest due to her busy work schedule and mundane duties as a mother also said that she applauded Guardian for conducting this search because it shows that the ordinary women such as young working mothers and working women can be healthy and beautiful as well.

“We are not superstars, movie stars or celebrities. We want to show that we are normal women with normal problems and yet we can strive to be healthy and beautiful at the same time.”

At the launch of this nation-wide search in May this year, Soren Lauridsen, CEO, South East Asia, Guardian Health And Beauty Sdn Bhd said:

“This search for The Face of Healthy Beauty is NOT a Beauty contest. In our books, the Healthy Beauty, is a person who lives life to the fullest in a healthy way, and has a distinctive style and pleasant personality. She is someone with a positive attitude, gives priority to being healthy first; and looks after her physical beauty too.”

Each winner will:

sign a one-year contract as Guardian Brand Ambassador that comes with RM10,000 cash

RM10,000 Guardian vouchers

RM5,000 each for them to give to a charity organization of their choice

Will be featured on the Cover of Guardian’s Brand Catalogues and other collaterals and will receive products from participating sponsors

Soren explains that the Healthy Beauty concept is at the core of Guardian’s brand philosophy and that this concept was borne from a consumer insight that good health is the foundation of true beauty.

“We discovered that our customers believe that true beauty comes from a healthy physical and mental state of being,”Soren said.

By focusing on this consumer need since its very first store at The Weld 52 years ago, Guardian, has become the store to go to for health and beauty needs.

He said:

“While these basic needs have remained, consumption trends have evolved driven by changing lifestyles and economic circumstances. Health and beauty are no longer as clearly defined as they used to be. They have been intertwined. Guardian too, has evolved. From being the health and beauty store, our mission now is to inspire our customers to live a healthy and beautiful life.”

“To achieve our mission, we have trained our team members to be beauty and health care advisors, while continuing to offer the latest and most innovative health and beauty products,” Soren added.

Touted as the first-of-its-kind in Malaysia, this search for ‘The Face of Healthy Beauty’ is open to all Malaysian females aged 18 years and above. Entries were submitted online at https://theface.guardian.com.my.

Participants needed to upload a 30 second video of themselves indicating ‘Why they want to be The Face of Healthy Beauty?’ or write in not more than 100 words why they want to be The Face of Healthy Beauty.

One hundred (100) shortlisted participants will be selected to attend each semi-final to be held at Johor Bahru City Square, Gurney Plaza Penang, Central i-City Mall Shah Alam and 1Borneo Hypermall Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. Four semi-finalists from each region will attend the Grand Finals in Shah Alam on 27 July 2019.

In addition to the four winners, there will be eight category winners to be awarded by sponsors. These are: Most Healthy (Blackmores), Most Elegant (Bio-essence), Most Youthful (Garnier), Most Expressive Eyes (L’Oréal), Most Passionate (Maybelline), Most Confident (Nivea), Most Cheerful (Safi) and Most Charming (TRESemmé)

Dr. Marzuna, Head of Animal Welfare of Department of Veterinary Services (DVS) on behalf of Dato’ Dr. Quaza Nizamuddin bin Hassan Nizam, Director General of DVS, officially welcomes public and trade visitors to the 12th Edition of the Pet World Malaysia (PWM), the largest pet exhibition in Malaysia and organized by Fairs & Events Management Sdn. Bhd. (FEMSB).

Dato’ Dr. Quaza Nizamuddin bin Hassan Nizam, Director General of the Department of Veterinary Services, said

“Malaysia has established the Animal Welfare Act in 2015 and has been officially enforcing this law since 2017, which is a good effort by the Malaysian government. This is because some international requirements need prove that each country has animal welfare regulations in place before being able to export their products and services. With this, I am confident that MATRADE and DVS will work closely in the coming months to facilitate this regulation on the exportation of the pet industry goods and services.”

PWM invited celebrities like Bernie Chan (Supermodel & Host), Chelsia Ng (Singer), Crystal Ong (Singer), Denise Chan (DJ) & Leng Sean (DJ) to attend the exhibition. This initiative aims to create awareness on responsible pet ownership by having the celebrities to interact with their fans and visitors of the Pet World Malaysia 2019. They as role models have a duty to do in spreading awareness and encouraging responsible pet ownership to the public.

According to Jonathan Kan, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of FEMSB,

“I am truly excited to have a sold-out exhibition that encompasses a diverse set of activities including pets shows, competition, education, showcase, trade and many others. PWM 2019 has proven that there is a market demand for the pet industry. PWM is the biggest gathering event of the pet lover’s community and I look forward in continuing making history for the Malaysian Pet Industry.”

Over the past decade, PWM has been the center stage for the Malaysian pet industry in terms of social, welfare rights and economy. PWM aims to grow and develop the pet industry in Malaysia by cultivating a pet loving society and an international platform to showcase Malaysia’s products and service to the world. PWM urges Malaysians to take advantage to produce and export the pet products overseas as there is a huge global demand for it. Besides that, Malaysia’s strategic location and current economic situation makes Malaysia a suitable place for foreign investors and manufacturers to expand their businesses.

Pet World Malaysia 2019 expois poised to be a family-fun trip as there are various activities in store for the family. Among pet supplies and accessories, activities such as cat shows, dog shows, dog grooming competition, petting zoo, informative booths and many more will be held at the expo for the next 3-days.

The New JOHNSONS’S baby care range is suitable for minutes old newborn babies to 6-year-old kids.

Reasons babies require gentle products

To help Malaysian mothers understand why newborns and toddlers need gentle skin care, Datuk Dr. Zulkifli Ismail, Consultant Pediatrician and Secretary General of the Asia Pacific Association lends his presence at the launch to answer some frequently asked questions from moms. He explained that infant’s skin is under-developed and is therefore delicate and requires gentle cleansing and care.

“A newborn’s epidermis or the outmost layer of skin is 30% thinner than adults. It means it cannot absorb and retain moisture in the skin and is prone to moisture evaporation and dry skin”

With baby skin already vulnerable to losing moisture, strong cleansers will only disrupt the skin barrier even more, causing further dehydration. As such, parents need to select gentle cleansers that do not disrupt baby’s delicate skin and keep the skin barrier hydrated and in healthy condition with moisturizing.

Why you should CHOOSE gentle

“At JOHNSON’S, we have always been committed to delivering only the best for babies. We have never been more passionate in advocating for parents to CHOOSE gentle, that is to select the gentlest baby care products for their little one.”shared Mr. Prashant Mahalingam.

Excited about the JOHNSON’S CHOOSE gentle campaign, several celebrity mothers attended the launch to show their support.

“As my little boy is actively crawling and constantly on all fours on the various floor surfaces at home, I have to ensure his skin is well moisturized and protected so that he can enjoy his exploration and develop happily.”said actress and model Amyra Rosli who became a mother in 2017, and advocate of gentle baby care products for 1 year 7 months old Aqeef Anaqi Amar.

“I believe every newborn deserves the gentlest baby care products. This ultra-light, easy-to-rinse wash and lightweight lotion with no sticky residue allow me to get a good grip of my little Seng Sum during bath and change. It gives me even more confidence to handle her, even though I have had experience caring for Seng Jo. And the smell..it makes her even more lovable to hug and hold. Expecting moms, you need this JOHNSON’S gentlest baby care for newborns!

The New JOHNSON’S range of baby care products will be available at major outlets nationwide starting June 2019.
